5 articles review ; writing skills
Hello everyone!!!
At
this time I will discuss writing skills based on 5 other website sources to
increase your skills on writing.
So
Happy reading…
In the first article entitled What is Writing? which was published on https://www.englishclub.com/writing/what.htm
by the account manager of Englishclub.com,
The author argues that "Writing" is the process of using symbols
(letters of the alphabet, punctuation and spaces) to communicate thoughts and
ideas in a readable form. And "Writing" can also refer to the
work/career of an author, as in: "Shakespeare didn't make much money from
writing". In our own language,
writing is usually the fourth language skill that we learn. To write clearly it is
essential to understand the basic system of a language. A writer may write for personal enjoyment or
use, or for an audience of one person or more. The audience may be known or
unknown. Blogging publicly is an example of writing for an unknown audience. A
letter to a friend is an example of writing for a targeted audience. The
important and interesting thing discussed here is the writer's assumptions
about the importance of an audience such as speaking, it is also important to
consider your audience when writing.
In the second article entitled Writing Skills which was published on https://www.skillsyouneed.com/writing-skills.html
by the account manager of skills you need,
the author argues Writing skills are an important part of communication. Good writing skills allow you to communicate your
message with clarity and ease to a far larger audience than through
face-to-face or telephone conversations. Today, when anyone can be their own publisher, the author see more and more examples of poor
writing skills both in print and on the web.
Poor writing skills create poor first impressions and many readers will have an
immediate negative reaction if they spot a spelling or grammatical mistake. The important and interesting thing is good news
is that writing is a skill which can be learned like any other. Another way to improve your writing skills is to
read - as you read you pick up new vocabulary and engage with different writing
styles. As well as grammar, spelling and punctuation,
it’s important to remember your audience.
Always write with your audience in mind, and
it can also help to bear in mind the medium in which you plan to publish.
In the third article
entitled Basic Writing Skills which was published on https://www.journalbuddies.com/writing-2/basic-writing-skills/
by the account manager of journal buddies,
the author argues it is essential that children develop basic writing skills at
a young age. Whether teachings are about basic grammar skills, correct
spelling, sentence, and paragraph structure, or any other writing rules and
skills, the sooner the learning starts and the more in depth the lessons are,
the more kids are going to get out of it. Using imaginative reasoning, rather
than sitting them down in front of the chalkboard is a superior teaching
method. For example, using flashcards with pictures, fun books, and videos, as
well as different color pens and pencils to teach children about grammar rules
or sentence structures, are all great options to use with young kids. Due to
their shorter attention span, the basic writing skills that are taught must be
easy to grasp and understand. Creative writing should also be a part of the
education kids receive relative to basic writing skills. Having children create
characters, scenes, plots, or an imaginative storyline as part of their
learning experiences will help them to engage more deeply in the process of
learning to write. The important and interesting thing is by proper writing
structure, sentence formation, punctuation, paragraph breaks, sentence breaks,
and other basic writing skills must be taught to children. Fun is a great way
to teach kids the most basic writing rules that are required as they develop
their writing mastery.
In the fourth article entitled Writing in College: 15
Tips for Students which
was published on https://www.writeexpress.com/college-writing-tips.html
by Stacie Heaps, the Professional Writer and Editor of Write Express, The author argues that Though writing is a creative
process and each writing assignment is unique,
there are a number of guiding principles that you should always follow as you
write for your classes:
Your tone should be fairly formal
Your tone should be fairly formal
Don't
use slang, jargon,
or cutesy language or symbols in your writing. Use
clear, concise language that effectively
communicates your ideas.
Be clear and concise
When
you write, use words carefully so that your
writing will be clear. Define unfamiliar terms
so that readers will understand them.
Find out what resources are available to you
When
you have a specific topic to research, talk to
the librarian or research assistant to learn about scholarly journals or books
that he or she recommends on the subject. Pay
a visit to the writing lab, and ask to have
your paper reviewed by one of the tutors. For
this to be most effective, you should go well
before the paper is due so that you will have time to revise your paper to
incorporate the suggestions made by the writing tutor.
Use the Internet to find examples, reference
sources, and information about authors. Once you have one good source from a particular
author, check the author's Web site or the
online database at the library to see if he or she has other works that you can
cite from in your paper.
Begin early
One
of the most important things you can do to help ensure success in your writing
is to start working on your assignment early.
Conversely, one thing that nearly ensures a
lower grade on a paper is to procrastinate. To
avoid this, write on your calendar the day the
writing assignment is due.
Understand the assignment
You
don't want to find out halfway into the project that you misunderstood the
assignment and have to do major revising or,
worse yet, that you have to start over.
Use an outline
Use an outline
Writing
an outline will help you to identify supporting points or flesh out your ideas, will allow you to organize your thoughts, and will let you know early in the writing process
if you need to make major changes or do more research on a particular idea.
Revise your writing
Revise your writing
This
will give you the opportunity to come back to your paper with fresh eyes and
more objectivity and will aid you in the revision process. For more information on this subject, see the article How to Revise Your Writing.
And the important and interesting thing is when it
comes to writing, the more you do it, the better you will become at it, so take
heart. Start early on your writing assignments and take the time to research
thoroughly, write thoughtfully, get feedback, and revise your writing, and
you'll be amazed at the results.

Having a wide vocabulary is an
asset of a successful writer. The one common mistake you can often see in a writing of
a beginner writer is the use of too complex sentences. The writer tries to sound more
authoritative and hence make unnecessary wordy sentences.

writing and suggest you improvements. Every company has at least one person who eagerly desires
